The 1983 Listening Post - The Exploited - Let's Start a War...Said Maggie One Day

The Exploited - Let's Start a War...Said Maggie One Day


1983
The Exploited
Let’s Start a War…Said Maggie One Day
3.5 out of 5
Highlights:
God Saved the Queen
Kidology
English punk. Very angry at Margaret Thatcher. (Who I’m angry at, too, because…that Meryl Streep movie was so fucking hard to watch) I don’t know if it translated here in the states but I can safely say that more than a half hour of this stuff is really boring.
The second side opener, God Saved the Queen sounds like an amped up and yet darker take on Adam and the Ants “Press Darlings”, in a very good way. By the time I get to “Kidology” I’m in and I want more.
